Bruno, Since you're a pro user, I'd recommend checking out the latest gexiv2 source from git://git.yorba.org/gexiv2, building from source, and doing a sudo make install. I noticed that on my dev machine I had several versions of gexiv2 in /usr/lib and /usr/local/lib. But compiling and installing from source ensures that the latest version of the so will be placed in /usr/local/lib, which, given the LD_LIBRARY_PATH on Ubuntu, should be searched first.
